I know this may sound stupid to you, but I am useless in fractions.
My daughter has a fraction problem and I could not solve it.
To share 4 cakes between 6 people
How do you work out the above answer?
Is there a website that I could go on and learn fractions?
Thank you

just put 4 over the 6 = 4/6
if they want a simple answer then see if you can divide it down a bit ie divide number at top and bottom by 2 to make 2/3
4/6 = 2/3 = 8/12 = 16/24 they are all the same number but the simple answer is 2/3 (you can see this because 4 cakes for 6 people is same as 2 cakes for 3 people)
